Business Appeal

Every year thousands of people turn to the Citizens Advice Bureau for help and advice and we help make a difference in their lives and the wider community. Clients often report improved health and increased confidence after receiving advice both of which reduce the demand for health services and contribute to happier, more integrated communities.

Supporting the local economy

As well as reducing the strain on other services, North Ayrshire Citizens Advice Service also plays an active role in contributing to the local economy.

For every £1 of funding invested in the citizens advice service, £11 is generated for the economic and financial gain of the community.

Referral to a North Ayrshire Citizens Advice Bureau can alleviate staff absenteeism and underperformance which is often rooted in personal problems, such as debt or separation, helping to save local business and employees’ time and money by reducing the number of lost working hours through these problems.

Employers themselves seek advice on behalf of employees, or in respect of their legal obligations.

Our Citizens Advice Bureaux train and develop the skills of volunteers, providing real work place experience, equipping them for a wide range of paid occupations. Volunteers are trained in counselling, Information Technology, administration and many other roles.
